subaru

I'll be eating dinner this evening with Subaru executives and touring their new plant tomorrow about which they say,

"The average household sends more to a landfill than the entire Subaru manufacturing plant in Lafayette, Indiana. The Subaru plant is the first auto assembly plant to achieve zero landfill status - nothing from its manufacturing efforts goes into a landfill. It's all reused and recycled. The Subaru plant was determined to be the first auto assembly plant in the U.S. to be designated a Backyard Wildlife Habitat by the National Wildlife Federation in 2003. Deer, coyotes, beavers, blue herons, geese, rabbits, squirrels, meadowlarks, ducks and other animals live on the plant property in peaceful coexistence with the Subaru plant."

If you have any questions you'd like me to ask the folks at Subaru please leave them as comments. A full report to follow over at Groovy Green.
